Looks like there is a lot more wrong with AU than just a tough OOC schedule..they are about to go down to Yale at home. This team is fading fast.

Yes, but for whatever reason, I still worry about BU on the road there.

If Bucknell can come away with a convincing victory Wednesday, then I think all of the PL games except Holy Cross should (and that is the key work) be easy W's.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Lehigh at Stabler is no gimme. The Bison lost there last year, and just barely won the home game. And Lehigh, once Juco Joe returns, does have 7 of their top 9 players back from last year.

Also don't forget that the Bison just barely hung on to win at Colgate last year also. (Also were lucky to beat Colgate in Sojka.) On paper, Colgate should be better this year, although they haven't done it on the court.

If the Bison have a bad day, either of these games could get tight.

I concur. No League road game is a gimmee particularly since we'll get the best game they all have to offer.

This being said, Bucknell does well against teams who do not execute well (athleticism notwithstanding) and AU is ripe to be blown out by Bucknell.

I agree. I was at all 3 games against AU last year, and they had a tendency to be sloppy. I was stuck in DC traffic and got to the game at Bender 8 minutes in. When I walked in, I was shocked to see that we were down something like 18-2. The rest of that game, we nibbled away at the lead. So, since I missed that big AU run, I never saw anything to impress me. However, there is still something about them that worries me more than anyone else (other than HC)

I understand....I'll argue AU is the kmost athletic team in the League. Athletes can rise up.

IE DePaul. The same Depaul team we beat in Chicago beat Wake Forest at Wake.
